Abstract

In this paper, we study invariant almost Hermitian geometry on generalized flag manifolds which the isotropy representation decompose into two or three irreducible components. We will provide a classification of such flag manifolds admitting Kähler like scalar curvature metric, that is, almost Hermitian structures (gJ) satisfying \(s=2s_C\) where s is Riemannian scalar curvature and \(s_C\) is the Chern scalar curvature.
